a rare jam with ned and the band
one of the rare "phil & ned"/seastones jams where garcia and billy sit in, seguing gracefulliy into an elegant eyes/wharf rat. this makes it a must-listen
...
for fans of the '74 jams, and a good introduction to the underappreciated genius of ned lagin. The Seastones sequence begins with a minimalist thump, with Mr Lesh involved in a call-and-response with the logarhythmic beat of Lagin's modulated synth rumble. Jerry steps in with some spidery licks that teaze Lagin toward wilder oscillations that sweep the stereo field, evoking the experience of the wall of sound. billy arrives five or so minutes in, leading to a building intensity of interplay until ned finally generates a sqeualing, scraping banshee sounding lead synth tone that scrapes your inner ear like a titanium brillo pad. once this subsides there is a tranqul pweriod that allows your consciousness to settle back down your spinal column to your pineal gland. The band settles into an electrically-enhanced jazzy wave with keith on electric piano, setting the stage for they drama of the eyes jam that awaits. five stars.
one reviewer claims phil and ned saves this show while the review right beneath that says that phil and ned sucks......get your head out of your ass, its
...
a dead show.

Nothing to write home about...
Although not quite as good as the preceeding night, the band is able to hold it together for another performance. Highlights of the first set include an
...
extended show opening Scarlet Begonias that is packed with some great jamming, and a set closing 23 minute performance of Playing in the Band filled with jazzy excursions and dynamic interplay (DP #7). I'm not going to go into the Phil and Ned segment (I just don't have the patience for these), but this is one of the better ones (with Jerry contributing for a portion), if that's your kind of thing. Ned continues to sit in for a rather uniquely jammed out rendition of Eyes of the World. Lagin contributes to this one significantly at times and it's rather cool hearing the twin keyboard sound and some interesting interplay with both Jerry and Phil. It's an excellent rendition, in spite of some less than stellar vocals, featuring a nice Weir/Lesh duet towards its conclusion. Also noteworthy is the jazzy outro jam of this suite making for a rather interesting transition into Wharf Rat. (94 pts)

Incredible! Sound quality is great. It's always nice to listen to shows when Jerry was young and healthy.

a jam that is on almost all '74 Eyes and while it sounds close to "Stronger Than Dirt" it isn't. I've played guitar professionally for 35 years and can play both this jam and "Stronger Than Dirt". Another example of someone reading too much into a Dead jam!!

The GRATEFUL DEAD "Live On Stage" September 11, 1974 at the Alexandra Palace, London, England, ... United Kingdom
` ~^|\_@|@_/|^~ ~<->/<->\<->~ Classic 1974 Sound/Performance. Seastones is superb. It's nice to hear Ned and the DEAD make music.
...
I always loved the GRATEFUL DEAD doing feedback. Seems with the newer cleaner amps the feedback stuff was cleaned out....too bad. A "Must Have" show for all collectors of 1974 GRATEFUL DEAD. I highly recommend adding this show to your 1974 GRATEFUL DEAD collection. It is not an audience recording. Only U.S. Blues is an audience recording. I recommend using your EQ during playback of most of the shows on the IA, this one included. Windows Media Player has a 10 band EQ and SRS WOW effects that enhance the sound. Here's one way to download/stream this show: The IA recommends users of Windows XP view this web-page with RealPlayer. RealPlayer is a free media player you can download at www.realplayer.com. Using RealPlayer to view this webpage, click the VBR M3U link to open the songs in the Playlist. If your Playlist is not open, open it by clicking the Playlist icon at the lower right hand corner of RealPlayer. Once the songs are in the Playlist, double click the song to play it, then click the record button at the lower left hand corner of Realplayer to record it. When the red line reaches the other end click the stop button to download the song. Your song is in the RealPlayer Downloads folder. Repeat these steps for each song. OR Take the "audio out" of the "headphone jack" on your computer and hook it up to the "input" on your Reel-to-Reel, Cassette, Beta-Max, VHS, CD, DVD, MP3 recorder and record it in real time....duh? Eat, Drink, Be Merry and Listen to the GRATEFUL DEAD....for tomorrow we may die..... Thanks for the LOVE from 1974. Wanna bet Ned has no clue this is here? PS: The Red Coats got a real treat from some West Coast Yanks this night.
